課程概述 |
(最新課程綱要與授課內容請參照英語版本的課程頁面)
This is an introductory course on the diversity of eukaryotes in different aspects — from genomes to ecological interactions. Major topics include evolutionary relationships and history, cell structures and functions, and importance for various ecosystems and humanity. More emphasis is put on eukaryotes less covered in other courses — namely protists (algae and non-photosynthetic microbial eukaryotes) — which occur in oceans, soils, lakes, animal guts and many other environments.
In the 2021 Fall Semester, the course is divided into 16 weeks, including two exams (weeks 8 and 16), student presentations, one national holiday (week 1), and 12 lectures. |
|
課程目標 |
To acquire a basic understanding of:
1. Evolutionary origin, history and diversity of eukaryotes and their genomes, organelles, biochemistry, cells, and organismic biology (Part I: Week 3–7)
2. Major eukaryotic lineages and important eukaryotic microbes (Part II: Week 9–12, 14, written assignment and oral presentation)
3. Relationships between eukaryotic microbes and Earth, ecosystems, humans, and other microbes (Part III: Week 13 (and 9–12) + assigned readings) |
